Yeah, the only problem is that the JB uses Alnico 5's for it's glassy, bity airy tone, and the Custom Custom has Alnico 2's, which gives it it's warmth. Hmm..... :-\

LOL!!

Best bet is probably a magnet swap on a JB or CC - try 'em all A2 3 4 & 5.

There are a few people here who have done a lot of magnet swaps & experiments, I can't think of names of the top of my head though...

Custom Blues? Jazzy Custom? :p

What about putting a JB and a Custom Custom coil together? Sure would'nt work well because of the different inductances but?
 
Re: My dream pickup...

stag mag! lol

i wouldnt be too worried about inductances man, most humbuckers have at least some difference in impedance, some (like the stag mag) have quite a large difference.. it just lets you select a beefier singlecoil in case you try and tap it, without having the humbucker mode being too hot..
